The moment Clemson fans feared arrived.
Making his first career start, freshman Trevor Lawrence was knocked out during the Tigers' game against Syracuse.
Lawrence was scrambling during the second quarter and took a hard hit to the helmet. He remained on the ground for some time before eventually being walked to the locker room prior to halftime.

It was announced before the start of the second half that Lawrence would not return.
After a strong showing against Georgia Tech, Lawrence was named the starter this week. Kelly Bryant, a senior who led the Tigers to the College Football Playoff last season, had started the first four games. Bryant then decided to transfer.
Redshirt freshman Chase Brice replaced Lawrence in the second half with Clemson trailing 16-7.
